Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Tokelau 5 Dollars - Elizabeth II (Poseidon) 2017 gold coin is that it features a unique reverse design depicting Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea, holding a trident and surrounded by waves. This design is a departure from the traditional effigy of Queen Elizabeth II that is commonly featured on coins issued by Tokelau and other Commonwealth countries. The use of Poseidon's image on the coin may have been inspired by Tokelau's maritime history and its dependence on the ocean for food, transportation, and other aspects of daily life.
